A friend of mine asked for favorite gluten-free treats recently and I thought…where do I start? I realized my list of favorite Christmas treats was from 3 years ago–before I was gluten-free and dairy free. So since it is time to think and plan and grocery shop for the things you need for Christmas baking,…
Menu Plan Monday, December 1!
So apparently, I took a whole month off. First the internet went down during the only time I had to write. It got fixed quickly, but then the Princess got sick. Really super sick and remained so for a couple of weeks. Meanwhile, I tried reintroducing some chicken into my diet with very poor results,…
Hubby’s Famous Chili
My husband makes an excellent chili. It’s not complicated, but it tastes yummy. I think one of my favorite parts about it is that I can put him in charge of dinner and I don’t have to worry about anything except whipping up a pan of cornbread! 6 cans (15 oz) of chili beans 3…

The theme for the Gluten Free Menu Swap over at Celiac Family is pumpkin. Pumpkin is not my favorite orange veggie–I much prefer butternut or sweet potatoes, but it is hard not to give into all things pumpkin. This week I’m planning to make some pumpkin ice cream and if I have enough coconut milk…
Sweet Potato and Apples Dish
Growing up in Lancaster County we ate a lot of casseroles. I still miss them sometimes, but most of them had meat and cream soups and cheese and that just makes them difficult to recreate. Last week I had some apples and some sweet potatoes to use up and so I decided to recreate this…

The theme for the Gluten Free Menu Swap over at Celiac Family is fennel. I don’t think I’ve ever used fresh fennel, and I didn’t see any at the farmer’s market this past weekend. I know I’ve used dried to help season sausage when I used to make it, but otherwise I am not sure…

The theme for the Gluten Free Menu Swap over at Celiac Family is apples! I am so excited to be able to find my favorite apples at the store again. I think to celebrate apple week we will be having some apple dumplings for dinner one night! Towards the end of the week I will…
Homemade Apple Butter
I first thought about making my own apple butter when I opened a half eaten jar of store-bought and found all sorts of goop all over the top of the jar. From there I read the ingredients and I was just like why is there all this stuff in apple butter? I had seen apple…
Menu Plan Monday, October 6th!
The theme for the Gluten Free Menu Swap over at Mom’s Plans is sweet potatoes! My daughter loves what she calls orange potatoes and so do I. I have some that I need to use up this week so I think that we’ll bake some and then I will try to adapt a dish I…
Menu Plan Monday, September 29th!
The theme for the Gluten Free Menu Swap over at Celiac Family is gluten-free Chinese food! I love Chinese food and we frequently have stir frys. I have yet to find an easy DYI sweet and sour sauce that everyone likes. I’ve tried making egg rolls in the past, but for now I end up…
